For the life of me i cant get the HC to work!!!

Anyway im basicly looking to steal the blinds here. Most are lp and will call with alot of hands i beat, the 3 bet sets off some alarms but obviosly im calling. The best i han hope is he;s on a 88- but im guessing im gona need a good flop to continue.

Then i hit the flop

then i think i spew cash all over on the turn...

can i fold this river?

call the flop. raising accomplishes nothing except bloat the pot.
raising the turn is pretty spew.
and no, you shouldn't fold the river.

With the fish still in the hand, shouldn't we be raising the turn to get him out with whatever 7x/bottom pair he has and to try for a free showdown against LPA?
Some days it feels like I've been standing forever, waiting for the bank teller to return so I can cash in all these Sklansky Bucks.

Raising flop is OK. First attempt at pushing the second villain out, and it failed. Also frequently buys a free river card.

So yeah, raise flop. Call turn. Call river.

Wow, imagine the luck. A fish actually names himself fish so you can pick him out and play against him

they will only fold if the pot isn't small. with the 3bets preflop and raises on the flop, it's big enough that fish will try to draw to 3 outs.

As far as fold preflop no way. This is six max and im on the cutoff with A9 folded down to me. I'm raising this 80% of the time to try and stael blinds and for value. Im getting called by weaker aces Kx Qx, random hands all the time.


I raise the flop to thin the field, i figure im ahead and i dont want people drawing to overs.

I raise the turn for the same reason, but when i looked at it again it seemed like a spew, although some LPA will continue to bet oc's like this or even underpaires. The fact that im not 3'bet tells me he dosent have a set, and his AF is 2.5!.

I did call the river.

You think so in depth about your hands. Reading your posts have opened my eyes tremendously on how I should be thinking during hands.

Awesome, I'm notoriously bad at 6max. Looks like I'll be learning a lot from your future posts. Stick around and keep posting, who knows, you might learn something as well....
